Clarity, all of humanity is in danger if they don't listen. Being put on a specific list just means it comes your way sooner.

I know because of their association with me, those who I care about are in danger. I know I have enemies out there. That's why I tried to avoid relationship entanglements for so long. But then I couldn't leave Hannah behind any longer. Then Wie appeared literally from my dreams. Then Sarah managed to find her way to us (thank you by the way Clarity, just never ever tell anyone else who we don't know where to find me and Hannah ever again please) and now I find myself in care of a household.

I'm not sure how much this "protector" shared with his kin, I want to say he probably kept most of the details to himself because he thought I could be turned into an ally. But I don't know. I just have to be on alert.

But I've been on alert for a while. I just went through that whole affair with that Pyopas witch and I know Khavik's wanted to track me down and do something to me for a while too.

But rather than sit still and wait for the hammer to fall, I'll do what I've always done, go out, track them down and make sure they are the ones loosing sleep.

And your "celebratory" comments directed at myself will not get an answer as I see no need to explain myself or my actions to you or anyone.
If I interpret that 'correctly,' I will only add this: and "'The Councilor' says I'm arrogant..."
And if I didn't, good on you. I'm seeking an explanation, and the excuse "It's that way because it is" has been used before. Circular, but a standard answer psychics give to skeptics.

And Clarity, I didn't mean to imply I had an explanation for Ethan's disappearance; if I got your hopes up, I apologize.

That’s okay . . .

_____That’s okay, Mr. Deacon. One of these days, I’ll find him. And then I’ll try to help him however I can.

A year and change and still no follow up. Perhaps he hadn't shared his details with his kin and they don't know much about me.

The weres and the vampires have been laying low in the meantime though - not sure what's up with that, but I hope they've decided to clear out.

I was reading some of dad's old posts to remind me of him and I came across this.

I wonder if Clarity was right that we might have been targeted because of this.

But I don't know how the nightmare would have found them then. Then again, it did find Khavik before, so maybe it can find these things too.

I hope my dad is reading the boards even if he isn't posting and packs some silver bullets.

When you mean to kill someone, you should take every means at your disposal to make it happen, not try to play at being a knight-errant.



Can't sleep tonight. I should be, there's lots to do tomorrow. But I can't. Too restless. So here I am reading up on anything that might be related to current circumstances. And I come across this little nugget.

I can't help but agree with Mr. Caliburn here. You don't bring knives to a gun fight. Or a sword either.

Hannahs right, Mr. Caliburn and I a lot more a like than I ever realized.

It makes me wonder now, if I'm the only one who's going to lose sleep over this.

What the hell is wrong with you people?

This Caliburn guy guns down a guy in cold blood and you treat him like a hero.

Did any of you stop to think about the kids who didn't have their father come home on Christmas or ever again after that?

Not at all. Well not until much later when some of you figuredout that you knew the kids and they were friends of yours.

You figured that out all too late.

Well someday Caliburn is going to get his in all of this. If I am lucky I'll get to be there when it goes down.

Hey freerunner dude.

You're not the only orphan on this board. You want help growing past what happened to you and getting over it, you've come to the right place. Lots of us can help you with that.

If you've come to troll and make threats, you'll get schooled just as readily.

By the way, some of us weren't around for these events and some of us, as shocking as it may be to you, don't really care one way or the other.

Nope. I, like my brother, choose to live our lives the way we each felt our parents would have wanted us to. We honor our parents memory by not obsessing over their deaths or those responsible for killing them.

Of course my parents were killed in a car accident. That is to say an eldritch abomination flipped the car they were in at the time. We did eventually stop said Eldritch Abomination years later but not because of revenge but because it had to be stopped.

What's the difference you ask?

Had we given into simple revenge motives, we would have hurt a lot of others on our way and probably would have failed in our objective. It was with level headed thinking and planning along with objectively carrying out those plans that carried the day.

Now, if you want to see justice done, that's another story. In this case it is also tricky but not impossible. Thing is, in seeing justice done, the part of you seeking revenge may not like the outcome and will never be satisfied.

Cut the hissy fit, kitty cat. Now is not the time for this. When Ron gets back, and can speak for himself, than you are more than welcome to rag on him. Hell, I'll even cheer you on.

Right now though, we have a problem, and you are not helping matters.

Well Daichan, I suggest you re-read this one for the circumstances that led to my father's death.

He was working to protect our kind from the depredations of this so-called hero of yours. He offered him the opportunity to back down peacefully without further blood letting and this great crusader of yours gunned down a bunch of teenagers in the street.

So my father confronted him again as was promised. He challenged him openly and honorably. Instead of taking him up on the duel your champion admits to just gunning my father down in the alley.

Finally, and this is the piece that gets me, he goes and he brags about it here. He doesn't even cover up that he brought a gun to a sword-fight but instead shows off that he outsmarted someone who was making every effort to be honourable and fair towards him.

I know what you folks think of my kind, well my father never ever harmed a human who had not harmed one of our kind first. He taught me the same and I am going to honor that. He also taught me that we have to protect our own kind from those that would seek to destroy it, including folks like your idol Caliburn here.

He also taught me to keep my word and I made a promise to someone who I used to think worthy of making promises to. I won't go looking for Caliburn . . . but I didn't make any promises about what I'd do if I happen to encounter him.

Of course, apparently he's now missing. I'd love to help you find him, but hey, I have a promise to keep.

Alright I tried being nice to ya kid but you're blind and stupid. Probably because you're a kid so I'll give you some leeway but I'll only go so far.

But I swear to god that when addressing a post here to me if you say Caliburn is my hero or my damned champion or my crusader just one more time, I swear to the Kami I will find you myself and choke you out for being so bloody thick, got that?

He's just a man. I get along just fine with him but I don't kiss his ring or worship the ground he walks on. Wanna know what makes him easy to get along with? He's never went off on me in what amounts to a barely coherent rant. Maybe he might have in the past but I'm not going to base relationships with people based on what they might have done in the past. That goes for you too.

Now, you little snot, it's time for school. Lesson number one, people who don't jump to agree with you on a subject online aren't necessarily ignorant of the situation. I've read this thread. I'm not impressed. There's enough here for you want to call Ron to task, yes. To seek justice, yes. But it is by no measure the open and shut case you seem to want to beleive it is.

Starting and ending with the culpability of your own father in this mess.

Bet you didn't want to hear that, did you? Well tough. I tried the kids gloves but you seem to want to belly up to the adult table so it's time for the harsh sting of reality, kid.

What were those of your kind doing that caused Ron to hunt them down and kill them? Were they hunting and attacking people? Were they attacking Ron? Were any of them innocent? Can you prove it?

You claim your father was protecting your kind but Ron can make the same claim. They're both just claims and need to be validated.

So who is your father anyway? To act as police/judge/jury AND executioner? I'll tell you who he was. He was your kinds mirror image of Ron Caliburn, that's who. He's another vigilante without legal backing taking the law into his own hands to do what he thinks is right without regard to due process or the rights of those he hasn't chosen to protect.

He warned Ron? Big deal. He has absolutely no authority to deliver warnings (or rather, ultimatums). NONE whatsoever. So obviously Ron is under absolutely no obligation to listen to him. Nor did he deliver any evidence to Ron that the people he's protecting will be safe from the people your father is allegedly protecting. You get that kid? Ron wasn't going to stop protecting his people anymore than your pop would have. And there is nothing like an assurance from your old man that he could stand down in that regard. Just threats and ultimatums.

Alright, now let's get into that so called honorable challenge crap you're spouting. I come from Japan. My twin brother lives and breathes all that death before dishonor or reason crap. I actually called him about this because I admit I never let silly crap like feeling good about myself get in the way of doing right thing or winning a necessary fight.

Apparently my highly honorable brother does not think a being with enhanced strength, agility, endurance, senses, an immunity to many forms of damage and an increased ability to heal is in fact being honorable or fair in challenging a middle aged human to a sword fight. Isn't that bloody shocking? I wonder why he would think that? Maybe it's because it's not a fair or honorable fight.

But nuts to that whole honorable thing. I'll tell you what, sweet pea. I've been a warrior longer than you've been alive. I know I don't look it and thanks for noticing but here's how it is with warriors. You bring everything you got to the game or you don't play. I don't mean you don't try to play, I mean someone violently removes you from the game. THAT is what happened to your father. He underestimated his opponent, thought he'd have some sport so he'd feel okay about his hypocrisy (that is murdering a man just like him, doing the exact same job).

They were both soldiers. One of them failed to properly respect his enemy and paid for it.

But if that ain't good enough and you want revenge, then you deserve to be cut down as stupidly as your father was.

If you want justice, that is having a neutral party determine if Ron truly agreived you as you claim and if so, award a suitable recompense. There are avenues that can be pursued. In fact, I'm dating a man with access to a court that could truly be considered neutral in this case.

But at this point it seems you're more interested in trolling these forums with your angst and juvinile bile.

Oh and if that person you thought was worthy of respect was Hannah, then she's proven herself many times over to be your better. You got no cred here and you burned the benefit of the doubt.

If you do continue to troll, you can expect the flames and deconstruction of your pathetic angsting to continue. If you want some actual help, then I suggest you settle yourself down, stop accusing everyone here of being in league with Ron Caliburn, stop taking pot shots at Hannah and start acting like a reasonable being with a legitimate beef to be addressed.

Oh! Did you see that? Where I pointed out that you might actually have a legitimate beef? Yeah, you do. Your dad died. But how you're going about it? Get over yourself kid. You're too involved to be an impartial judge of anyone on this forum. In fact words such as irrational come to mind when I read your posts.

For the record, you have absolutely no idea what I think of your kind.

Your promise not to go looking for Caliburn might keep you alive a little longer kid. That's the only good thing you've said. And if you do encounter him some other way, hopefully you learned the lessons of your fathers failure. Warriors bring it. Respect in combat is going all out. Ron will certainly bring it if confronted by you.

Is this also how you honor our Mother and our Father, Dai?

Did our Uncle fail to instill in you any sense of manners or hospitality? Obviously honor is too much to hope for at this point but one could ask that you not blow up at a youth who is in grieving for his father.

Welcome to the boards, Freerunner92. I do not hope that you find what you seek but rather what you need.

Please excuse my sister. She is an ill mannered brute but she means well.
